John Cuthber Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 You need to define what you mean by "measuring effective philosophy" What effect is philosophy meant to have? How might you measure that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Banana Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) What effect is philosophy meant to have? Any usefully intellectual effects, in contrast to questions which have a flimsy basis or no effect at all. i.e. Counter examples to effective philosophy: How much knowledge is too much? How many more things on Earth do we not know about? Real Beauty Do you need to be selfish to be successful? Conciousness surviving the destruction of the brain?
